Beautifull as usual Hans and Hendrick.. Iris season never end  ;D
By the way, we should ask our favorite moderator to open the Juno 2012 season  ;D
Hans, the I. stenophylla is  :o :o
Here, only Iris palaestina is flowering now, the other species are just starting to show some points.

Nice colour variations Alex and Hendrik,
galatica is only just showing here, narbuti and aucheri are the most advanced but the rosenbachianas are moving now.

Beautiful plants Hendrik, Janis and Alex!

Hans you have some brilliant plants - did you grow from seed or start from bulbs/rhizomes?
Thanks Pat, if possible I start from seeds -it takes much longer but it is more satisfying when you see it flowering after a few years and you know you can grow it- I always feel bad when I loose a bulb or rhizome and think how many years it was grown by a skilled person before ...  ::)


Several Junos  (and Reticulata) are in flower - here i show my actual favorites: a fine pale form of Iris persica and the colourful Iris fosteriana:
